Seems that I'd really need to try Emacs on Windows. gdb in a DOS box (even 
more so under Win95 because not resizeable) is a big pain in a certain place.

[very good explanation about debugging snipped]

I've got a few gdb questions. I even looked through the entire gdb 
documentation but couldn't find anything.

Is there a way to display the contents of all variables in local scope or 
even better at the current or next source line? All globals as well? And 
maybe even automatically?

Thanks and Regards,
